Over The Solway Monotype

From a rocky bit of beach near Sandy Hills (the Scottish side of the Solway) my favorite beach visited again this half term, camping with the family. I grabbed a quick watercolour sketch which I made this Monotype from. The colours were so vibrant as the sky darkened just before it started to pour down.

The Lizard Tree Monotype

There is a tree on Bonis Hall Lane that you see as you drive towards the junction with the Silk Road into Macclesfield that I always thinks lookes like it has a Lizard sat in it.
